Inspektoro Hornleigh Goes To It
Sur majo 17, 1941, Dudeka Jarcento – Fox liberigis la tria kaj lasta Inspektoro Hornleigh filmon, Inspektoro Hornleigh Li iras al ĝi. La serio miksas komedion kaj krimo dramo krei unikan produkton. Gordon Harker ludas Inspektoro Hornleigh, dum Alistair Sims ripetas sian rolon kiel Sgt. Bingham.
La filmo (Filia ligo) opens with Inspector Hornleigh dictating his memoirs to Sgt. Bingham. Inspector Hornleigh expects to be assigned to a “Fifth Column” or internal treason case, which will add to his memoirs. Tamen, his rival Inspector Blow gets the case. Inspector Hornleigh and Sgt. Bingham are assigned to stop a theft ring within the British Army.
Gordon Harker and Peggy Ashcroft being directed in a 1940 public information film Harker is standing in the boat.
While investigating the theft ring, Sgt. Bingham starts dating a local girl named Daisy. When Inspector Blow shows up at the base to tell Hornleigh that someone knows two Scotland Yard men are investigating a theft, their suspicions fall on Daisy.
Inspector Hornleigh and Sgt. Bingham trace Daisy’s movements to a local dentist. They discover that Daisy has a dentist appointment after every date with Sgt. Bingham. Bingham protests Daisy’s innocence but Inspector Hornleigh responds, “Either she is what I think she is or the way you kiss ’em knocks their teeth in.”
After the dentist is killed, Inspector Hornleigh realizes he is investigating something bigger than a theft ring. Hornleigh has discovered the “Fifth Column” group. His investigation will take him to a prep school and eventually a mail train.
This film was made during World War II, so Twentieth Century-Fox included a disclaimer at the beginning of the film to inform viewers that safe guards existed to prevent the situation outlined in the plot from actually happening. Tensions with the general public would have been high during this time.
La filmo ĝi mem kuras proksimume 83 Minutoj. While it is the third film in the series, it may be the best plotted of the three films. I’ve also reviewed Inspector Hornleigh Kaj Inspector Hornleigh on Holiday.
